The High Court has ordered Kenya Power to pay manufacturing firm Cerapack Products Sh5.9 million after a suspected electric fault caused a fire that burnt the company’s business premises 10 years ago.
Lady Justice Asenath Nyaboke Ongeri ruled on August 24 that both the power utility and the affected firm will split the cost of damage, amounting to Sh11.8 million, on a 50/50 basis saying it was not clear, which entity would be apportioned the entire blame for the fire outbreak.
